Notes & Reviews:

The soloists with the Mexican Baroque Orchestra include violin, psaltery and sopranino recorder. Together they offer concertos by Facco and Vivaldi. The Orchestra itself uses today’s mariachi vihuela and guitarrón to play the essential accompaniment to most Baroque music known as basso continuo. These instruments were designed in Mexico during the 17th century and were based on their European counterparts such as the lute and baroque guitar.
